Thorston,

Change .clogin to use your tac+ password instead of "cisco".

clogin is obtaining your username from the environment, you need to
provide your password in .cloginrc.

Hi

Today i had my first experiments with RANCID.
I try to clogin to one of your cisco routers, we are using tac+.
clogin use my name but not my tac+ password.

I setup .cloginrc file with the following settings.

add password my.router cisco cisco
add userpassword my.router cisco
add method * {ssh} {telnet}
add noenable *

When i change my tac+ password to cisco it works.

Mike,

Thx for your feedback.
Ok, but it is a little bit unsecure.
Can i use DES encryption like tac_pwd and login = des ....
in the tac_plus config ?
